The Tripura government has decided to rechristen 75 border villages in the State after the names of freedom fighters who had sacrificed their lives during the country’s independence movement, a senior official said on June 25.
The project to rename 75 border villages will be taken up as part of the 'Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav', an initiative to celebrate and commemorate 75 years of the country’s independence and the glorious history of its people, culture and achievements.
“The programme to recall the contribution of freedom fighters to the country's independence will commence in July and is scheduled to be completed by August 15 this year.
